In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the historic Great North Run on 27 June 1982. The image showcases an awe-inspiring moment of determination and resilience as blind competitor Joyce Phipps fearlessly takes on the challenging race with her loyal guide dog Una by her side. As Joyce confidently waves to the cheering crowd, it is evident that her indomitable spirit knows no bounds. Her unwavering commitment to athletics shines through, defying any limitations imposed by her visual impairment. With every stride she takes, guided by Una's unwavering loyalty and trust, Joyce exemplifies the true essence of strength and perseverance. The presence of Una in this photograph is a testament to the incredible bond between humans and animals. As they navigate their way through the race together, their synchronicity is palpable - a harmonious partnership built upon mutual reliance and support. This snapshot encapsulates not only a remarkable sporting event but also serves as a powerful reminder that obstacles can be overcome with determination and unwavering support. It symbolizes triumph over adversity while inspiring us all to push beyond our own perceived limits. NCJ has masterfully captured this extraordinary moment in time, immortalizing it for generations to come. This print serves as an enduring tribute not only to Joyce Phipps' incredible achievement but also celebrates the unbreakable bond between humans and their faithful companions.
